jeremy,
i really don't think that method of washing is effective. Where are you located? Do you have access to a company which reconditions injectors?? Like RC Engineering.

Nope i am located in Singapore. There is no place that recondition injectors. you mean the washing method that i use will spoil the injectors?

what year is yr bike??? I have a brand new set of injectors for 05, never been used.

I don't know that washing in gasoline hurts them, but i wouldn't do it.

BTW: i bet you a beer at Orchard Towers (I favor the joint on the 2nd floor that has a nice mix of Vietnamese and Thai chix ), that someone in Singapore cleans injectors. Ask a performance car place.

it depends how he is cleaning them. If he is bringing them to somewhere that has the right equip, all is well.

taking the PC3 out is also a option but wasteful , present i set the idling at ard 1300rpm, seems to be more rideable.

Someone suggested to me to ask the mech to do the Throttle body balancing again as there might be too much air flowing in at the moment.

Guys guys, silly me, actually all the problems i think was caused by the fact that the mech did not connect back the choke cable to the lever.
